Purpose: This study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of a single-dose, preservative-free (PF) Dorzolamide/Timolol combination (Twinzol-SDU).

Methods: A 3-month single-arm, multicenter, prospective cohort study was conducted in Egypt between January 2021 and October 2022 on previously diagnosed and controlled patients with ocular hypertension and/or glaucoma. Efficacy was assessed using the change in intraocular pressure (IOP) after 6 and 12 weeks.

Gemcitabine hydrochloride (GEM) mimics one of the building blocks of DNA and RNA, so it indicates possible chemotherapeutic effects. It prevents cancer cells from producing DNA and proteins, which ultimately leads to their death. The goal of this work is to modify the GEM medication by nanoforming nanoliposomes based on the composition of Cholesterol, pectin nanoparticles, and phosphatidylcholine (PhC).

Background: Liver transplantation (LTx) is vital in patients with end-stage liver disease, with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease being the most common indication. Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is an important indication. Portopulmonary hypertension, associated with portal hypertension, poses a significant perioperative risk, making pretransplant screening essential.

A novel series of 1,2,3-triazole/quinazoline-4-one hybrids (8a-t) were designed and synthesized as dual-targeted antiproliferative agents. Compounds 8a-t were evaluated for their antiproliferative efficacy against a panel of four cancer cell lines. The results indicated that most of the evaluated compounds exhibited strong antiproliferative activity, with 8f, 8g, 8h, 8j, and 8l demonstrating the highest potency.

Article Synopsis
  • - A new series of 4,6-diaryl-pyrimidines was created as potential cancer treatments that specifically target EGFR and VEGFR-2 pathways.
  • - Among the synthesized compounds, two were found to be particularly effective, showing GI values of 22 and 24 nM, while also acting as dual inhibitors and promoting apoptosis in cancer cells.
  • - The promising results included lower cell migration rates and superior docking scores compared to established drugs, suggesting these new compounds have great potential for further development in cancer therapy.
